Sunday Club Ride : 31st October 2021

The weather, again, this week doesn't look too good. As last week's route was only bravely, and somewhat damply, used by the Chairman, who I don't expect to be out this week, I would propose this route for the club ride this week. It should minimise headwinds, and avoid anticipated muddy roads.

On a personal note, the usual club guide will probably not be available this week. So, you are determined to ride this Sunday, please bring the route with you. You may need it for self navigation.

Meet up at 9am, outside Priory School.

Café stop near Chew Lake

Saturday Club Ride : 30th October 2021

Although there is the potential for some rain this week, here is the proposed route for this week's Saturday club ride. I would anticipate this ride going ahead regardless of weather on the day.

With a fair amount of mud around currently, it's probably best to avoid potentially muddy routes.

Meet up at 8:30am, outside Priory School.

There have been many updates to the weather forecast for Sunday over the week. Currently it is due to be dry and a little windy. If it does turn out to be wetter than expected, and you are determined to ride the route, please bring the route with you. You may need it.

All things being equal, meet up at 9am, outside Priory School.
